You believe independent verification of study results are "immaterial"? OK.
- toomuchtodo 9y agoBecause I do not have access to raw data does not make the resulting facts any less true (see: proprietary hurricane models). The NHTSA made a determination and I’m using it as a data point.

This may be relevant information for anyone who sees you using the NHTSA's claim as a premise.
